Chapter 10: The Plan.
That morning, Velma Dinkley head over to Judge Faust's chambers, she had brought a few photographs of the evidence she had recollected at the abandoned building site and the Katz Motel room where the comissioner and the mayor were taken respectively.
Walking into the chambers, she saw all the evidence that the judge had recollected herself.
But she was surprised how extensive this conspiracy might had been.
"Secret society in Megaville?" Velma asked as the Judge closed the secret room to her chambers.
The Judge didn't respond for now and just examined the evidence on the previous crime scenes to put them on the board.
When she was done, she turned around while she turned a cigarette on. "Sorry, I need a smoke."
"So care to explain me what I'm looking at?"
"In a moment, I've got to tell you that the current situation with the Mayor is being kept a secret for now. But it won't take long til it is leaked onto the media. Besides, by now there might already a leak about the Comissioner since his disappearance was on a public site."
"Yeah I know, there's been a lot of calls at the police station."
"Something big is going on, there was no letter or message that would demand some sort of payment for the release of the hostages. It's weird, who would kidnap important figures in Megaville and not ask for money."
"You're including Chip Skylark and the Ridgemount kid right?"
"That's right, I think they're connected somehow." Faust said as she took a seat on one of the chairs in the room while Velma took a seat on the other.
"So what your board suggests it's that large corporations like Conglom-O is controlling the city?"
"Indeed, it's a theory of course, but Conglom-O had been doing some odd things lately, their international and military contracts had become more and more questionable as of late."
"I see."
"You know that the Eds and the Beavers had actions in Conglom-O aswell, which raises the question to how much they control."
Standing up, Velma exmined the board again, seeing all sorts of pictures that were connections to the Judge's theory about a secret society and most of those pictures had a symbol, a eye crossed with red color.
The Black White Killings was that catched her interest, she had been investigating the legend of the Ink Man ever since the lunatic began killing people in Megaville.
"Why do you think that the Black White Killings are connected to this secret society?"
"To be honest, I'm not sure yet, but I started to notice a pattern everytime that the Ink Man killed a super hero, when he killed Generator Rex. A mad man using the same nano-technology appeared, Bear Capicola. When White Pantera was killed, a man with the same endurance and strenght appeared, Le Quack. Other criminals began to surface once the Ink Man had killed the super heroes with those same super powers. And everytime a super hero was killed, Conglom-O took care of the Bio-Hazard investigation by orders of the current Mayor during the killings, Hannibal McFist. Another powerful actionist within Conglom-O."
"So you're saying that Black White had been killing the super heroes for them while he posed as a serial killer to avoid centering the attention on Conglom-O?"
"Possibly."
"This is far more complex than I thought. So what about now? Are they somehow connected to the current kidnappings?"
"Well, my informer said that she was going to leave town, she had been feeding me information, everything you see in this board I learned it from her. And if she says that things are hot in Megaville, then I think this society has done something."
"Ok then. I've been investigating the unsolved case of the Ink Man, if you'd like I could bring my own board here and we'll try to figure it out what really is going on between this killer and the secret society."
"Sounds like a plan. For now, let's use our resources to find the Mayor and The Comissioner before the city explodes in a scandal."
"Right." Velma said as she shooked hands with Judge Faust and left the place.
Back on a certain abandoned site of Conglom-O, where the criminals reunited, the Ink Man aka Black White was having a chat with Helga, the Beavers and a man in the shadows wearing a white suit, from the era of Disco music.
This man hide in the shadows because of his frightening apperance, he had blue skin and a wide smile full of sharp teeth, his face looked like he had gone through third degree burns, except they they weren't burns exactly.
He was sitting on one of the couches of the office while listening to the others.
"So you've told the judge anything else?" The woman wearing the white mask that leaked ink asked.
"No, just what you've told me to say. She has enough information now, I think she is really close to realize what kind of company Conglom-O is."
"Good. Bill will be pleased." The woman chuckled, her voice sounded distorted, to hide her identity.
"When is the plan going to start?" Norbert Beaver asked.
"Tomorrow, there will be a online broadcast, you'll know when to take care of things after that."
"What about the rich kid?" The man hiding in the shadows asked, his voice sounded deep and frightening.
"You can keep her I guess, as soon as the broadcast comes to a end." She chuckled softly and the man did the same.
"Thank you... that's all I needed to know. I might keep her, or sell her to the higher bidder, she's a fine specimen. Ridgemount will pay handsomely aswell, for her rescue. I once told that man to never back down on our business. He'll learn his lesson after I'm done doing my will on his daughter."
The man stood up and walked out of the room, leaving a slightly creeped out Helga and the Beaver brothers.
"Tell me why do we keep inviting that freak to our meetings?" Helga asked.
"He's the Boogeyman dear. He ignites the party." Black White laughed softly and then finished. "Go, I have another meeting."
They nodded and walked out of the room, soon enough, Black White turned around and saw Agent P standing behind her.
"I hate it when you use that corpse." She said.
"My powers are weak, I can't bring more than one person into my realm, this is the only way I can speak to Mojo and you at the same time." He chuckled softly.
"Heard you made a deal with Al Lusion, that true?"
"Deals are the only thing keeping me attached to this reality, ever since my demise at Gravity Falls." Agent P took a seat on a couch and looked down on the floor, he then stared down on his hand, his connection with the body was rather weak, he felt like if he wasn't able to close his fist.
"What did you promised him?"
"Hehe... I tricked him into thinking he needed something, men are easy to corrupt, they only want money and power, and in this case is the latter."
"Power huh?" She chuckled softly.
"He's going to get me one of those journals..."
"You want to open the portal again?"
"Hahahaha! Nah, I want to reattach myself into this realm, I need the journal."
"Ok, but I thought you knew a lot of things, why would you need the journal?"
"Because the only evidence of my deal with the author is on that journal."
"I see."
They then looked back as they saw Le Quack walking in with Mojo, who gasped in surprise as he saw the man who had warn him about Conglom-O in a dream.
"You..." Mojo said.
"Hehe, good to see you Mojo. I hope you're ready for your last stand."
"Let's get to the point, shall we?" Black White said as she took a seat on one of the chairs nearby. "Let's discuss about the plan."
Le Quack grabbed a chair and made Mojo to take a seat on it, he looked slightly intimidated by the mercenary, the serial killer and the Eldritch Abomination in the room.
"What do you want to discuss... it is your plan..."
"It is, but I want you to know that is no simple scheme like the ones you planned back at Townsville." She chuckled softly and Le Quack kept his large hands on Mojo's shoulders, making sure he wouldn't leave and just made Mojo more and more intimidated.
"You're aware that you might die at the end of this crusade?" Agent P asked.
There was no response coming out of Mojo, his hands trembled lightly.
"Here's what you'll do when the broadcast is live. You will make no mention of the Powerpuff Girls, you will remain silent and direct your words at the city, ignore the Girls, we don't want the city to know of their existence."
Mojo raised a eyebrow, confused.
"You'll play the role of a anarchist, you want the people to know how broken this city is. That you're the result of how polluted the world has become. You will show that the justice system is nothing more than a joke, that has been doing nothing about the crime going at the streets. You... will do this to be able to get their attention. Without addressing them by their names, because if the city finds out that you're doing this because of them, they will investigate the girls and tie them up to Conglom-O."
"But why?" Mojo asked.
"Because if they find out about their connection to Conglom-O they will find out about the experiments and if that happens, I will have to honor the deal I made with them." Agent P chuckled softly.
"The deal?"
"That's right, a deal." Agent P stood up. "My name is Bill. Not my real name, it's one of the many names that I am know for."
"Ok..."
"You might already have the idea that I'm not normal, I'm not even a meta-human. I'm... something else. Something you're somewhat big but still primitive brain cannot understand."
Mojo stared up at the man, the fake eye on the green mask he wore brought chills down Mojo's spine and he was unable to say anything.
"I'm going to give you a chance, Mojo. When all this is over, you'll be either brought back to the company or they're simply kill you to cut loose ends."
Mojo clenched his teeth, enraged but frightened.
"So let's make a deal."
"Huh?"
"You know what will happen, if they get their hands on the girls. That is why I told you that you should follow the plan all up to the moment where you capture them, do not bring them in, kill them. And you will delay their plans for a few more decades. That is one of your choices, but I'll give you another. You want revenge?"
"Revenge...?"
"That's right... revenge... to expose Conglom-O."
Mojo thought for a bit, staring down at the floor, until he raised his face up and stared back at Bill, but with a serious look.
"What if... I want a favor instead?"
"A favor?"
"A favor... for a favor... I will do all this charade, follow your every instruction... if I can cash in a favor by the end of this plan?"
"Sounds reasonable. Ok then."
"My soul is yours then..." Mojo said.
"Hahahaha, your soul?" Bill asked.
"Isn't... isn't that what monsters like you always look for?" Mojo asked, confused and scared again.
"I don't want a worthless thing like your soul. Who do you think I am? There is no such thing as a soul, I could take your brain, but what use do I have for a mix of chemicals that make something as close to a soul? No no no, Mojo... what I ask in return is favors. And when all this is over, I will someday cash in my favor."
"Oh..." Mojo said.
"Do we have a deal?" Bill said as he leaned in with his hand to shake Mojo's, visible fire, blue fire began to burn over his hand.
Mojo stared scared but Le Quack then spoke.
"It won't burn you."
Gulping down, Mojo leaned in to shake his hand.
"Hehehehe..." Bill laughed softly before Mojo blinked and he was gone.
"What is... he?" Mojo asked Black White and Le Quack who just chuckled softly.
"You don't want to know." Black White said.
